The 316 Outdoor Showers Atlas is a freestanding outdoor shower built from 316 marine-grade stainless steel. It combines the placement flexibility of a freestanding post with a fixed rain showerhead and a handheld unit, a pressure balance valve, and a two-way diverter — and it requires no wall or structure. In a PVD Black finish, it suits pool decks, open patios, and coastal installations where both a rain head and a handheld are wanted but no wall is available.

Product Highlights
316 Marine-Grade Stainless Steel
316 stainless adds molybdenum to the alloy, improving corrosion resistance in salt air, chlorine, and poolside conditions where standard stainless can rust and pit over time.
Rain Head and Handheld Included
A fixed rain showerhead gives wide overhead coverage, and the handheld unit adds a flexible rinse for targeted cleaning, rinsing swimwear, or washing pets.
Pressure Balance Valve and Two-Way Diverter
The pressure balance valve holds water temperature steady when other fixtures in the home are in use, and the two-way diverter switches flow between the rain head and the handheld.
Freestanding Installation
No wall or structure is required — the Atlas installs anywhere with plumbing access, which makes it a fit for open pool decks and patios.

Important Information
Professional installation is required. The plumbing connection should be completed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local codes.
Ensure the installation site has adequate drainage before installation. A freestanding shower requires a drain or an appropriate surface drainage solution.
Although 316 stainless steel is highly corrosion-resistant, periodic rinsing after exposure to salt water or pool chemicals will extend the fixture's lifespan and maintain its appearance.
Contact us before ordering if you have specific questions about rough-in dimensions, water supply requirements, or plumbing compatibility.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Atlas differ from the Teton and Summit?
The Atlas is the freestanding model with both a rain showerhead and handheld — combining the installation flexibility of the Teton with the shower feature set of the Summit. The Teton is also freestanding but includes a foot wash station instead of a rain head and handheld. The Summit has the same rain head and handheld combination as the Atlas but mounts to a wall. Choose the Atlas if you need freestanding installation and want both rain head and handheld. Choose the Teton if a foot wash is the priority. Choose the Summit if you have a wall to mount to.
Why is 316 stainless steel better for outdoor showers than standard stainless?
Standard stainless steel (typically 304 grade) can rust and pit when exposed to salt air, chlorine, and pool chemicals over time. 316 grade adds molybdenum to the alloy, significantly improving corrosion resistance in marine and poolside environments. For any outdoor shower near the ocean or a pool, 316 is the correct specification — not an upgrade, a necessity.
Can I use both the rain head and the handheld at the same time?
No. The two-way diverter directs water to either the rain showerhead or the handheld — one at a time. This is standard for diverter-based shower systems and ensures full water pressure at whichever outlet you select.
What does the pressure balance valve do?
A pressure balance valve maintains a consistent ratio of hot to cold water even when pressure fluctuates elsewhere in the home — for example, when a toilet is flushed or another tap is opened. This prevents sudden temperature swings during use and is a standard safety feature in quality shower valves.
What maintenance does the Atlas require?
316 stainless is low-maintenance. Rinse with fresh water periodically after heavy exposure to salt or pool chemicals, and wipe occasionally with a mild stainless cleaner to maintain the finish. Avoid abrasive cleaners or steel wool, which can scratch the surface.
The Atlas combines a rain head, a handheld, a pressure balance valve, and 316 marine-grade steel in a freestanding shower that installs wherever your outdoor space calls for it — no wall required.
